Astoria is known as the oldest American settlement west of the Rocky Mountains. For thousands of years, the Clatsop Indians inhabited the land now known as Astoria. In 1805, Lewis and Clark led their expedition through the city and spent the winter in Fort Clatsop. In 1813, a British warship sailed up the Columbia River and acquired possession of the city and remained in control until 1818, when they finally agreed to a joint occupation of the country. The British did not leave Astoria until 1846.

Free day to visit Portland. Keep Portland weird, that's the motto of the green town. So it's no wonder that the pleasantly deranged Portland attracts creative people with its culture, music and art scene. Besides the 65 breweries in 'Beervana' Portland, the city is also dotted with wineries, wine bars and fine restaurants. The liberal city is also rich in museums, boutiques, festivals and events. Nature lovers can visit the Rose Garden or Mount Tabor Park for a walk on an volcano or the Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area that stretches east of the city.
